Dr. Mike had ALOT more to say about V Shred that we couldn't fit in this episode, to watch the super extended and uncensored version, become a channel member! bit.ly/37esL8i
Shredded V shred to shreds 😂
Couldn’t and wouldn’t are two different things
A lot is two words.
Something you omit saying about the vshred guy is that this guy is young and naturally ripped, I used to be that way not doing anything, some people are just lean and its frustrating seeing guys and girls that you can tell are naturally lean pretending being that way by training or supplements, also when you are in your 20s you should shut up and not give advices, give advices if you are lean at 50 ; I had 6packs at 35 I could have bullshitted social media about training but that’s just dishonest ; when you have a lean body type you are lean your whole life unless you really abuse bad foods…
Fucking flawless ad transition! 😂😂
His name is Vince Sant. I went to high school with him and he trained at the same gym as me back then. Dude was always an absolute creampuff in terms of training and also one of the most narcissistic guys I had ever encountered. When he stsrted getting slammed online regularly it was a thing of beauty to me 😂😂
At least we know now what Vanilla Ice would have been if he pretended to be a fitness trainer instead of pretending to be a rapper.
Ive been waiting for this one
Mike don’t care lol
😂😂😂
He’s fully narcissistic. And a total douche.
The fact that I got a v-shred ad before this video made this hit even harder.
Me too
Same
I literally got on right in the middle too!
Same here
Yep me to
He said.." mother f*****, who's we?! It's just you and a camera phone "😂😂😂😂😂. I just discovered this channel and I'm here for it. ❤
I came here to say this exactly, lolololol 😂🤣🥰
Hahahaha me too. I am over here dying laughing. This man melts my petty heart 😂😂😂
Saw your comment before I got to that part, found it funny in text, then his delivery is epic 🤣
I am getting so sick of V shred popping up everywhere.
Everywhere except inside me 😔
We all are.
Poor guy, he's been beaten into the ground..
I hope it never stops
He refuses to go away
If you're talking literally, I'd happily watch that shit on PPV.
As long as he keeps showing up in people's ads, it will never stop.
@@OMAR-vk9piit’s because he makes sales, which is just sad that there are people dumb enough to listen to him and spend money on him.
And yet he still getting his bag…
And all these vids just boost his online footprint
So as much as I think he’s a joker (more so since other TV doctors now hopped on board) he still getting his bag
I love it when V Shred mentions "natural herbs" because that distinguishes them from those unnatural herbs that are bad for you.
Artificial robot herbs!
The ones growing by my nuclear plant gave me literally superhuman gainz.
😂🤣
@@cthon Same ! I'm applying for Vought and hoping to be in The Seven next year !
I hate that "natural product" stamp god damn. Like you said lots of products are natural yet not stamped as natural. Not only that but being natural doesnt make a product good... like I like to pick mushrooms in the woods and most of then are dangerous 😂 yet their all natural
I just found your channel. I always smelled bullsh!t with the V-shred ads. You sir I smell no BS. You're slinging facts. Thank you. I'm going to check out your body type video as I was unaware of it's validity being debunked. Thanks for the content!
Dude literally said "there's no such thing as body types" then turned around and confirmed there is in fact body types. I'm done.
@@JuliusTurner-hm6ffIn Canada, they teach you about body types when you want to attain your CanFit Pro with Fitness Personal Training.
I love, LOVE how you snuck in the app. It was a genius transition. 🥰
Your sense of humor is great.
V Shred is legit. Not only did I lose 50 lbs of fat while gaining 75 lbs of muscle in 2 months, but my wife is now satisfied, and my parents are back together! All while eating donuts! Thanks V Shreds!
And pizza by a pool, right?
How much garlic have you been eating to achieve those incredible results? Please share
😂😂😂
@@kyravanessaso You know it!
@@fitness3447 enough to get my parents back together. They blabbered something about a united front to help my mental condition but that’s neither here nor there… V Shreds, baby!!!
The fact that V-Shred is still around, after everyone blowing him up for years now, says so much about the current state of the fitness industry.
EDIT: And I guess it also says a lot about the general public’s perception of fitness, too.
Not the current state. Just always. I mean...gyms used to have those machines that used a leather belt attached to a motor to vibrate your gut. People have always been dumb and/or gullible.
His target demo isn’t the fitness industry
@@pierrea3094 but he’s part of the fitness industry. And anyone who consumes content (including advertising) generated by the fitness industry is, by definition, also part of it, at least tangentially.
Unfortunately true
It says more about the consumer.
I literally love Dr Mike! F*king awesome. We need more people like him in the world. 11/10!!!
What more short fat bald jealous middle aged men. I think not.
I love this guy's sarcasm.
The dude said "there's no such thing as body type" and I immediately turned the fool off. People like this shouldn't be allowed to give advice.
@JuliusTurner-hm6ff But....there's literally no such thing as body type.
somatotypes (ecto-, meso-, endo- morphs), which is what they mean by "body type" is not a real thing.
I do to .. he hilarious sarcastic
I like to think V-Shred came here in a time machine from the mid-90s and thinks he's giving really cutting edge tips
Lmao
I don't think he thinks its cutting edge tips, he has to know he's bullshitting everyone lmao
“Al why haven’t I leaped?!”
Totally agree! He is from the pre internet age where bullshit reigned Supreme. So enjoy seeing Mike rip him apart! I am getting an erection.
Yeah..he sounds convinced of himself 😅
V Shred is so fast that he can do 10 sets of 40 seconds HIIT in 5 minutes. He is truly ahead of our time.
Maybe that's the problem. He does his cardio so fast he pulled a Superman on the treadmill and now his brain is in the past.
More like ahead of time itself.
Which is why he ages slower than most of us 🤯
I never considered how incredible that was, until you made me want to do the math 😂
Who does he think he is, Chuck Norris?
I did their quiz years ago and it has nothing to do with body types. It’s basically: if you’re overweight you’re an endomorph, if you want to maintain your weight you’re an mesomorph, and if you’re underweight you’re an ectomorph.
Idk about HIIT cardio, but whenever I come out of a depression, HITT calisthenics helps me get back into a regular routine. 15min turns into 30 and then I'm back to lifting heavy again.
Its a frustrating cycle, but i will never steer anyone away from HIIT because of how much its helped me. Even if im just doing pushups and jogging in between sets, it helps get my mind right.
This commercial has been a peeve of mine for so long. It’s so clearly full of s***. The recent inclusion of Dr. Drew into it has put the final nail into the coffin of any respect I had for him.
Thanks so much for telling the truth. You have earned the subscription and I’ll be checking out your content.
I used to really respect Dr. Drew when he was doing Love Line with Adam Corrolla because he stuck to his field of expertise and seemed to give out quality advice to people, but post-Love Line, he started acting like an expert in everything in his attempt to schill for product endorsements and publicity. Not too disimilar to Dr. Oz.
Makes me wonder if Dr Drew even knows...
Omgggg yes! I tried to watch the video to get the tips to get the results and they never came. One hour of pure repetitious nonsense and no real information
@@JohnWS1892guys like Dr Drew might just take whatever endorsement deal they can get as they get older.
@@brandonb.5304Bill Nye is the same way. Nye is an engineer and acts like he is the last word in anything in the science field. Bill Gates too, who is just a software nerd and suddenly thinks he is equally as smart in every other industry because he had success in one.
It feels like Vince is the one guy that literally everybody in the online fitness scene, no matter how much they otherwise disagree, can unify on about being a grifter.
Yup. Entire fitness community can only agree on 3 things: training is good, V Shred is BS, and CrossFit is also BS
@@danielmatthews4234uhh crossfit is good if you want to be fit and healthy. If you want to get big and/or strong it’s definitely not a good idea. V Shred is completely bs all around tho
It used to be Mike Chang or whatever his name was, but it seems he got his bag and dipped 😂
@@DropIt56 Was that the towel guy?
You are forgetting Joel Seedman
I found my fitness guru… I love intelligent people with an edge. Subscription earned sir! Some of your quotes are gold!
Oh I love this, it needed to be done. Instanta subscribe!
I’ve always hated the v shred guy, I’m so happy to finally see someone tear him apart with science. I really just love it and thank you for this
If only they could stop him from running into my feed and interrupting music, etc. I really, really hate this charlatan.
V shred is an annoying douche 😂
he’s not even muscular, there are people that have been in the gym 2 years and 10x more fit and muscular than him
I don't really care about his fitness level he's just so obnoxious.@@noname91784
I'm actually glad to see this. He may look like he does on the outside but he has no medical knowledge at all. Anyone who looks in the camera and says that fresh eggs and red meat are metabolism killers, and that eating carbs does not contribute to fat gain, is completely wrong. The only thing I agree with him on is H.I.T.T But no don't do keto, paleo, etc and fasting doesn't work. Give me a break!
Thank you, Dr. Mike. There is no person in the fitness industry more deserving of a roasting than M. V Shred.
There's a bunch of people who deserve it more I would say 😅 it's not his fault that he is literally retarded (IQ under 80) extremely good looking and gets used to make money by a few dickheads 😅
Asslean lol
🤣😂🤣 I was not the only one !!!
V is the best
Honestly, at this point he deserves a class action lawsuit.
I'm only 1/3rd into this video and it's already my new favorite video on the entire internet. Well done, sir!
Really, really, really appreciate someone of your expertise making himself and his knowledge available to us, so we can be properly educated. Fantastic sense of humor by the way. Thank you again Dr.
This was hilarious. I’m joining this channel just because of this video…. and because Dr Mike seems to be one of the few who actually knows what he is talking about.
I joined because of the Henry Cavill video, haven't been dissapointed yet!
Welcome
@@steveduncan1529Yeah, he's real handsome... I'm talking about Dr. Mike.
Welcome. Be ready for lots of Dr Mike's humorous off the cuff rambling and the same few, solid, reliable, proven, true pieces of advice over and over again.
You're in for a ride! Every video is a gem!
I’m so glad I found your channel. The fitness industry is saturated with BS. Thank you for trying to help real people trying to get in shape or improve their physique
RP is the real deal. I’ve used their macro sheets and my husband uses their weightlifting ones.
V shred is the perfect example of playing life on easy mode due to genetics.
Thank you for this. You confirmed what I assumed from seeing the advertisements. I’m glad I didn’t waste any time or money.
I'm one of the dumb ones who purchased his crap...boy am I a dummy lol 😅 I'm trying to get refund now the app that he so called thinks is best is ridiculous and the food tips is absolutely too long of list it's overwhelming 😮
V-Shred did make me spend money... He did make an impact in my life... After seeing his commercials over and over I had to give in. I just could not deal with seeing him with a box of donuts, so I headed out and bought a box myself, what an amazing night that was thank you V-Shed!
I had a dream about donuts last night. 🤤
😂😂😂😂😂
I ate pizza. Non stop. An I'm in the best shape of my life. Infact I'm gonna go to McDonald's right now. Dairy queen after . I weigh 135. I'll eat a cow..it's called get off your a and do something lol
The law of unintended consequences, in effect.
I usually love Mike's humor but watching him get genuinely mad is too funny 😂
fuckin love the sarcasm from him
☝️☝️☝️😂😂😂 That’s fucking too funny!
Then you gotta watch his Video dismanteling Dr. Oz, holy does he get angry : D.
I love you Dr Mike! Your channel is absolute GOLD! Thank you for all your hard work! I really appreciate it! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
RP is my go to for fitness facts and it's becoming my go to for laughs, Mike and Scott killed it in this video. Great cuts!
Watched a few minutes of his video and said yea I figured it out. Started walking 20+ miles a week on the treadmill and lifting very light weights, cut out sugar, coke, Pepsi, cookies, junk food, bread, pasta, pizza and fast food and lost 20lbs and 3 inches from my waist in 2 months. Came off 1 blood pressure med. probably gonna come off the other. My point. Get up and move. Walk, change your diet. Give it time and you’ll see results. It works. 231lbs 11/22, 181lbs 10/23.
Congrats
I couldn’t help but laugh at the “body type quiz”. I knew my body type. Out of shape and unhealthy. On my way to better health, nutrition, fitness and performance thanks to Dr Mike and RP. Off all bp and cholesterol meds. I still need to watch more RP videos on nutrition. I feel that’s where I’m lacking the most. Nothing tastes good anymore. Thank y’all for the time and effort you put into this channel and community.
@@veronicaarevalo219 Thank You.
hell yeah brother
Try to post your height and gender with weight changes too please
That was your smoothest segue into the ad yet Dr Mike.... Kudos...
I love Dr. Mike's funnel!
Yeah it was great haha
Had me dying 😂😂😂
You had me at Lehman College in the Bronx. My fellow New Yorker, thank you for exposing this BS.
SUBSCRIBED.
I love you man! I have recently discovered your channel and I must have binge-watched 30 videos in three days or so! Love the content, the humor, the science behind it. You even made me start lifting weights again! Keep going! Love from a Greek in the UK
As a personal trainer...
Thank you for you service. I've been wanting to do something like this for so long because people are being so misled.
Props brother 🙏🫡
I mean....a dozen people have already done it
Click on his ads - that’s what we can do that will cost him money
Who the hell believes in this crap? Do people actually believe this nonsense??? 😂
Why didn't you do anything if it's been on your mind that long lol
@Senayoshy an on going battle of not feeling worthy enough while others with far more credentialis do it as well. Also an overly critical self image that makes me quite camera shy. 🤷♂️
Working on it though 🙏
Thank you for taking this scammer down. I see his videos everywhere and have been waiting for an authority to provide a reality check. You did not disappoint.
Man the number of times I've seen his commercials when I'm feeling desperate... I love this vid thanks!🎉
😂 you gave me the best ad workout. Loved your video.
I pray that V shred comes across your CZcams video!
I had a huge smile when I saw this video pop up. Just knowing Dr. Mike was going to eviscerate V Shred was enough to make my day lol
Same lol
Seriously! V-Shred's ads are so obnoxious and full of click-bait, it's rediculous!! I want to make 4000 youtube accounts so I can give this video more likes!
V for vagina
Cautionary tale: I'm a nurse. Last week, a 67 year-old male friend of mine sent a screenshot of his CBC. Off the charts high RBC, HCT, HGB. My first question was "Are you on testosterone?" He said yes, but his doctor didn't know. Turns out these V Shred videos had him convinced that he needed T so he was buying it from a guy at the gym. Guess who now has an urgent appointment with a hematologist. Of course I told him to go donate some blood asap but his BP is too high so looks like he has to go the therapeutic phlebotomy route.
Noob question: what is the reason for donating blood?
well, I wouldn't really blame V Shred as much here.
People are completely irresponsible - take drugs and do no regular blood tests?
Same as they don't care if they inject it into a vein or not.
Insane people...
@@steven469a person with high red blood cell count can reduce it (and help others out) by donating blood (or do a "double red" donation to drop it more (and help more people in need of blood)
This feels like something he should be able to sue over.
@@steven469lower the red blood cell count (RBC). Too thick of blood greatly increases risks of clotting and stroke.
Love your video. Thanks for sharing your thoughts brother.
This was awesome to watch!!
I did exactly that. Eat less, lifting weights, and enough protein, pre-workout, creatine. When I started that program I was 310lbs. And in one year I lost 75lbs.
Which program?
@@-mugen- my own.
Well done.
Congrats!! I’ve lost 85 pounds over the last year and a half.
@@allenyates3469 thank you
Something I’m not proud to admit is that I started my fitness journey with Vshred and his Ripped in 90 Days program. Looking back, I believe I bought into Vshred because I was desperate for an answer to my body dysmorphia, and his miraculous rhetoric sold me on a lot of his BS. Glad there are more influencers like you to call scammers like him out!
😅 me too.. I didn't even consider it was rubbish cos it had so much information in it, but seeing it getting ripped apart as just nonsense is eye opening that someone can bs their way to ppl who don't know better..
@@josephine4611this is how scam allmost works unfortunately 😢
We've all done stuff like this bro no shame in it. My brother still sends me programming/form videos from influencers online just because they look good. Ill sit and watch the video just to see so much bullshit wrong with it not to mention theyre on tons of shit. Keep telling him to stop watching that trash and actually listen to people that know what the fuck they are talking about. I.e Dr. Mike whose certified in quite a few things or natty channels that have been training and or coaching for 5+ years.
Nothing to be ashamed of dude. You don’t know what you don’t know. Scammers spend a lot of money to seem legit.
$$$ is always out there to be made on the desperate and uninformed. Shitty companies prey on these people and make MILLIONS. I should change my business model form being honest to being a scammer 😮💨
Bro your content is amazing thank you
Thank you , I just love this!!
Vshred is a perfect example of getting carried by good genetics. He has no idea what he is talking about when it comes to nutrition and weight lifting but still manages to have a great physique.
Sounds like DrMike to me with his nonsense how endo, ecto, mesomorph is a myth 😂
yep, VShreds shows how 90% of aesthetics Is based on genetic structure and I'm glad Dr. Mike helped to dispel the brain dead myth of "body types" such as end, ecto and mesomorph, haha. That old fake nonsense needs to go.
@@bearstrengthwithin it is a myth, there's no such thing as body type.
@@BoomSakebombnot true. My preferred body type is big tiddies

Hey, Dr Mike! As a clinical exercise physiologist myself, I appreciate your evidence-based debunking of social media fitness charlatans. Keep up the great work! PS I’ll be downloading the app. Thx!
So what is your opinion of HIT and the keto or carnivore diet? What is your opinion of the Covid shot? What is your take on veganism or insulin resistance?
@@Shake_Dont_Take😂
@@francostacy7675you should ask an MD about the vaccine, not an exercise scientist. Or find someone with a doctorate in virology or biochemistry. Asking an exercise scientist about the vaccine is like asking a zebra what its like being a giraffe. The answer won't mean a whole lot.

Great Vid Mike. Thanks for pointing out side by side comparisons of his assertions and your responses. Smiled at your opening expansive description of your location. You missed the last one: the Solar System is in the Milky Way Galaxy. Best to you.
Not gonna lie, I was seriously considering this 'program', but your video was underneath the ad.
Talk about divine intervention.... LOL!!
I'm a Broken WarHorse that's seriously lost the path. Lock down was really fubar. Can't get to the VA & I'm sick of taking 15 different Rx a day, just to be a zombie. I just wanted to find a "stepping stone" to retrieve something of what I was; before the IEDs, gsw's & mental pain of not bringing all my Soldiers home... cause I honestly can't find it.
Thank you for saving me time & $$.
I'm still breathing so I'll continue to search for that 'stone'.
Good luck in your ventures & thanks for the knowledge.
Stay with us here, bro. RP will get you far
I’m so glad this video came out. I’m so sick and tired of this guy saying to stop doing cardio and cutting carbs while trying to lose weight. I’m 51 years old and I gain weight extremely easily. I have always been active. I competed in gymnastics and played soccer for years. When I graduated high school I joined a gym and have been working out in gyms since. I hated running but had to do it because of sports. I am a lucky because one day I was running and all of a sudden while running up a hill something happened and I picked up my speed and have loved running ever since that day. I have health problems including rheumatoid arthritis so I have to be careful. I bought myself a treadmill a couple years ago and I run about 25 miles a week and walk at a fast pace on the highest incline for about 10 miles per week. When I’m running it clears my head and I feel great. I build muscle easily so I’m motivated to weight train because I will see results. When I was 19 I ate little to no fat, sugar and low calories. I saw zero results. I added protein and cut carbs and saw a huge change. I know what it takes my body to get results.
Right!! Thank you!
Exactly this. I have PCOS which my doctor explained to me as this.
1. If he checked my BLOOD SUGAR, I'd be fine because I'm non-diabetic. If he checked my INSULIN levels, however, they'd be through the roof. Because as someone with PCOS. I'm insulin resistant.
2. In people with PCOS, the body basically gets confused about the extra insulin. It doesn't know what it is, and for some reason assumes it's estrogen. So our bodies assume we have an excess of estrogen, which is why we're infertile. Because we basically become our own birth control.
So what do those two things mean?
It means if I eat a bunch of carbs, spike my blood sugar, spike my insulin WAY fucking high, then my body is going to assume I have a ton of estrogen in it and it's going to cause me to pack away fat.
If I CUT CARBS... my BS stays low, my insulin stays low, which means I have "decreased estrogen," which means I can actually burn fat and lose the weight. And as I lose the weight and my hormone levels balance out, my infertility MAY line out.
It's why women with PCOS get pregnant so easily after bariatric surgery a lot of times (provided there aren't other issues going on)
Yeah, that Vshred guy is a moron.
Test different things. You may not have a varying "body type" but you might have conditions that cause you to lose weight differently than others.
If I cut calories alone, I'm getting nowhere.
Hmm interesting, have you tried the carnivore diet?
Hi there, I was recently diagnosed with RA and am struggling to do any exercises whether cardio or weights due to the immense pain I’m in, currently. You are an inspiration to me.
Light is more important than food and exercise
I’ve been waiting for this for a while now. I could not stop laughing. Literally was in stitches laughing. What’s great is you’re very knowledgeable, and now you have my respect!
V Shred is just recycling junk science from 2005 which was never legitimate to start with. Can't make this stuff up.
Just stop doing it!
Why were you in stitches? Did you have an accident.
@@SeboHyatt Its a metaphor for laughing so hard your sides hurt.
@@voraxumbra1 I know I was being funny about it. He said "literally" so I replied as if he was being literal.
Dr. I love your no BS, smart assness. Great stuff! This is what I have been looking for to know the truth. Especially about V-shred.
Phew. What a relief. I fell into the VS funnel and managed to haul myself out with this excellent and humorous critique. Thank you 🙏
You called it and I am with you. Thank you for exposing these frauds.
That RP app transition was amazing. Props to both your editor and you for setting that up. What a duo!
I absolutely love this channel. Informative AND funny
You crack me up so much :D A lot of learning and fun, the best combo :)
I went down the V Shred funnel late one night watching these videos when I was feeling old and tired. I thought $60 for some forever videos and routines was reasonable enough. Then I got trapped. For about an hour I had to keep watching 1-3 min videos and hitting no thank you on everything from supplements to protein powder to more tailored programs. I was so frustrated and angry that I vowed to call to get my money back and never looked at anything again. I didn’t care if he was the most legit and knowledgeable person out there. I just never wanted to see his face or hear his voice again.
Feel you on that...this mofo talks forever. 😴💤💤
funniest thing is while watching this video, he was the first ad that popped up a couple minutes in.
I'm so sorry you went through this experience. People's health is serious. For this guy to give false information and false hope to people that want get in shape and healthy is a shame. I hope you do get a refund on your investment. You can also give a bad review because he cares more about making profits over helping people achieve their fitness goals.
@@ShaundiGoins Every one gives a bit of truth in their platforms. I did read a "body type" workout article in Men's Health & Fitness years ago. Not everything pertains, and if you know your body, and do your own research, you can pick which is best for you.
I experienced the exact same thing and felt the exact same way 2 days ago! I emailed them and requested my money back. The marketing is EXTREMELY shady.
OMG as a Fitness/Personal trainer, I appreciate you for speaking the truth regarding science and health. So many people are misled on fads and will fall for everything because they’ve tried every other fad and looking for quick fixes. No one wants to put the work in. The fitness science and industry is constantly changing and we need to continue to be educated with CEC’s to stay on top of the science. Thank you for honesty in this field. I just subscribed.
Well said
Yuuuuuuuuup. Everyone wants a quick fix. And the ones who come in the gym are not educated on the fundamentals of what muscle group works. I see a lot of young dudes who go hard and not taking into account or consequence of injury
I’d like to see the studies for these claims he is making tho… and interestingly here he is trying to sell his own product lmao
I'm trying to put in the work but idk what I'm doing wrong. I've been eating almost 90% produce for the last year just because I like it. I feel a lot better but didn't lose any weight. I now eat almost 50% produce (oranges, apples, mangos) the rest vegetables, chicken, rice, potatoes. Now I lift weights and run. Lost 10ish pounds in the last 1.5 months but can't seem to drop anymore weight. I need to but it's the only non healthy thing about me so I'm trying to focus on getting stronger so I don't think about the non weight loss
Love your videos bro. Serious weight lifting advice with comedy. Love it.
Well done sir! 💯
That ad transition legit had me pound my table in laughter.
It was beautiful 😂
So clean it set an oly record.
Dr. Mike is always super funny and informative, but this video unlocked a new level.
Thank you for making this just for people to be more aware. I still remember back when his ads were all over CZcams and I was just pissed at the amount of BS he was selling people on.
This is hilarious love listening to the critiques you do! 🎉🎉🎉
My fellow New Yorker, thank you for this video. His obnoxious ads have been killing me and I’ve been praying no one will listen to him/ would dismantle him. You are bigger than him and clearly educated - you’ve got a new sub here!
They really are obnoxious!😂
I’m a recently retired trainer. After 22 years in the biz I’ve seen it all…I smelled BS the first time I saw this YT commercial 😂.
Click on all his ads. He has to pay for those clicks
@@DD-jj9bd brilliant!
As soon as I heard one of his ads saying “women over 35 should stop doing cardio to lose belly fat”, my bullsh*t meter went off… I have been in good shape and fairly happy with my body for years thanks to an adequate diet and mostly cardio with some light weight training. No one can convince me cardio isn’t important.
💯
I LOVE both HIIT and steady state running, if you're only burning 300 calories in an hour you're not running fast enough (or you need to add in some hills/resistance.) The great thing about running is, if you get to the end and you don't think you've worked hard enough just tack on a mile or two and go harder. I find that I have trouble and usually injure myself by throwing on extra sets of weights (unless I do something like bare bar and super high reps.)
I agree, I don’t listen to that… doing some form of cardio helps keep my heart healthy.
I loved using the elliptical at a high resistance as my first workout of the day. 30 mins, level 15-16 at a fast pace bc it felt so dang good. Like trance for my brain. I was leaner when i did that with evening lifting than I am now with only lifting. Plus not as clear in my head. I love the lifefitness elliptical but the gym I have access to now has precor and I hate those lol.
Informative, funny and entertaining. Great content Mr Dr
Omg I’m so glad I found your channel! I can’t stand These fake fitness influencers that spread so much harmful information. They need to exposed and their claims broken down to people who may not understand.
I remember getting in an argument with Dr. Burns at UCM about body types not being a thing when I was getting my masters. Man how I wish Mike was still around that year lol.
Just looking up the origins of the somatotype theory debunks it. Willful ignorance is the only explanation for its persistence.
I totally get that, I’m currently training to be a PT and some of the stuff that I’m taught is definitely not right but, I have to show what I’ve learnt and if I were to question or have an opinion that might differ I would be seen as completely wrong.
@@elliotwilkinson8784please share what those things are. Its important for us to know any false claims being made in an academic setting
@steelmongoose4956 While Somatotypes are not particularly scientific they DO give lay people an easily understood reference and a starting point to talk to a professional. If you were to start talking to the average gym rat about anthropometry their eyes would roll back into their heads. So like a lot of things, Doctors and researchers lump a bunch of characteristics together and give it a nice name that normies can wrap their head around. So if a person were to ask me for nutritional assistance and said "I'm an Endomorph" I can make some rough assumptions like they carry a lot of weight in their core, they may react poorly to complex carbohydrates, they should have a lipid panel and fasted blood test, ask about family history of heart disease or type 2 diabetes. Giving people tools to talk about their health is never a bad thing even if its not 100% accurate.
@@HeadCannonPrimeWhile you need to use general terms in order to discuss with other people about the body, I think it's more harmful than necessary to come up with scientific sounding terms about an unscientific subject. It's just as easy to ask if they have a lot of muscle and/or fat, and it won't create as many misconceptions. The only reasons I can see why this erroneous matter wouldn't be called out in practice by those who are knowledgeable is laziness.
Dr Mike…This IS GOLD!!!!! You are awesome and hilarious!!
I literally just subscribed this video is amazing
My favorite line from V Shred is that steady state cardio is BAD FOR YOU because it takes around 40 minutes. Saying something is ineffective (which it isn't) is totally different than something being bad for you.
I also love the fact that he uses "it's boring" as an argument,
I watch TV or Netflix or whatever. So my steady state cardio is exactly as boring or not boring as the subjective quality of what I’m watching right? Lol.
Yeah lol man I saw my best results when I joined cycle class and stuck with it!!!!
I was duped by this at a very low point on Mother’s Day. It came with not having energy, being lethargic, and just feeling off. I was hurting after every single training session so I bought in. I spent over $3k for a program that I could not use. I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 7 days after I signed up. I tried to cancel the ridiculous program their “trainers” presented me with and they completely denied it! Said there was only a 2 day refund policy and they had “licensed trainers and therapists” that could help my needs. They LIED! No one there was even a certified trainer! Joke was on me!! Beware of this scam!
Of course it's a scam it's being advertised and sold on youtube, all of them are scams don't buy those pads that shock you into getting a sixpack either he's been pitching those recently
Has he? Wow. What a creep.
$3K??? What the holy hell?
$3k jfc
You are not alone. I was scammed too by his “coaching” program. I do feel foolish as I am not a gullible person. I just fell for false promises. I thought he was legit.
Have mad respect for you, Dr. Mike. You say it how it is, accurate information, no fluff, clearly educated!!!
I am so happy you called this guy out!! I see his ads alot and find him sickening. And now he is "teamed" with some fake Doctor (cannot even recall his name now) and his ads are even more ridiculous!!!
Thanks ALWAYS for the accurate information!!!!
This video was gold!
I’m no scientist, I used to work out religiously, I read into it and put it to use, I got results from
cardio, weights, proper sleep, and most importantly what food I was eating. Your video just simplified working out in 20min, thank you!
This is absolutely amazing! I couldn’t put my finger on why I had an adverse reaction to this v shred person…I’m no doctor nor am I even in the realm of a health expert but I do have a bullshit-o-meter and this video proves that my meter is in tact! I’ve been committed to my health journey for 2 years and counting Im 50 pounds down it’s a slow process but I’m fully invested. So glad I found you Dr Mike!
Thank you! I regret to say that in a moment of intense self-deprecation I fell for this scam, and in addition to following the online routines, I purchased the prostate enlarging snake oil in pill form. I further diminished my self-esteem with guilt over my desperate gullibility. It took a while for me to climb out of that pit. Your evaluation of Mr. V Shred has proved healing. Again, Thank You.
This was a crack up, I love your videos Mike.
The way you added your app in the video was absolutely hilarious and it worked loved the video man love the science behind the things you say lost over 300lbs in 5 yrs and kept it off and absolutely obsessed with fitness and nutrition people like you keep my drive alive and thriving I appreciate you man
I loved it too. I wanted to jump right into the funnel.
Jesus, I was laughing so hard and just wanted to give him money.
Those evil hilariously honest reviews are priceless. Also, the video editing and self-irony have reached an incredible level. Props to y’all, Mike and Scott-The-Video-Guy
Thank you for exposing this👍
Thank you sir for taking the time to call out these bums. My brother was hooked on this guy. I told him this guy was a fraud, but it fell on deaf ears. I just sent him your video. Thanks again. 👍🏻
I just heard a quote (wish I could remember who) that effectively said it's easier to fool someone than to convince them they've been fooled.
@@brandonreiser7739Anthony Fauchi?
@@jerrycunningham1820😂😂😂good one! 😂😂😂
I almost got sucked into a VShred program, 'glowing' reviews was a definite red flag... highly suspect. Good thing I did not just jump in with my credit card because I tune in to Dr. Mike
Its not v shreds fault . he's simply a hired actor hired because he " fits the suit " . everything he says is written off a script given to him by the owners of the corporation he works for .. He sees nothing from any of the products he sells , hes simply a paid actor playing the role of a fitness influence r
@@iang8169 yeah it could very well be that, I hope it is. Nothing against the guy but the product is indeed trash. God bless him, I hope the money was worth his integrity and face was worth it. Cheers to you friend for the wholesome reply. Peace!
People still wanna hit him with a stick or something hard😂👍. Look how many comments there are hahaha
@@akbananachucker2441a stick or something hard!! ROFLMAO
12:58...LOL. The disappointment in your voice due to his inability to read his cards got me. Subscribed and cant wait to explore your channel.
I am glad I found this channel.
Thank you for roasting this guy. I hate seeing his ads. As an ultramarathon runner, it is the worst hearing him talk about cardio being too hard and a waste of time. I can safely drop 20lbs in 2 months with running, faster if I restrict my diet (not everyone can run this much of course).
V Shred is the guy who skipped every physiology class only showing up on project presentation day after scanning the class slides at 1am the morning before 😂
if you cant run as much you can just go hiking up and down a hill a dozen times a day. theres no excuse for not doing cardio if you want to lose weight. i drink like a sailor and eat whatever i want and i can still lose weight by walking a couple km a day. the key is doing it consistently, and people that are too lazy to either accept that or put in the hours try to take shortcuts by paying money for stuff that doesnt work.
If anyone is interested in a little story about weight loss:
In my time at the military, we (our regiment), had a one month basic training programm.
At start we had men of different sizes and weights.
I was super skinny and weak there was another guy who was about 1.85 m tall and weigh about 140 kg, because he was also quite fat, like, you could see he was very chubby.
Anyway, everyone had to do the same excercises, running, combat training etc. as you would expect at the military.
We all ate A LOT because the training was super hard, I can't tell the amount of calories to be honest, but just imagine yourself having next to no time to eat, and put everything that is fat and full of carbohydrates etc. onto your plate, like a little mountain and basically inhaling everything of it in like a starving animal.
Anyway, after that one month, I got quite shredded, still slim, bit very well defined and I made push ups with 60 pound on my back for fun with 10 repetitions (as comparison, I couldn't barely do 15 proper push ups at the start of the programme without any weight). I could do 40 push ups without weight afterwards, (remember just 1 month of training and we didn't get much time to rest, I was basically exhausted)
But my gains weren't impressive at all, way more impressive was my fat buddy after that month.
He lost 40 kg of weight, his fat belly nearly disappeared and he ran 10km like everyone else at a fast pace.(before he broke down after 2km!)
So every fitness youtube who tells you cardio etc. is bad for weight loss, getting shredded etc. blah blah blah, it's all bullshit.
I shit you not, if possible, join a military basic programm and you WILL get shredded, stronger, faster, leaner etc.
Work hard and EAT a lot, anything else is bullcrap!!!
Ps: One little detail: Our officier, was an active spec ops soldier who got really pissed, that he was forced to train us little shits at basic training instead of remaining at his unit. So, I'm pretty sure the training was slightly harder than the average joe training programm 😂.
That guy was still eating way less than he did before going in the program. You can't out-exercise a bad diet. As just one little example, yesterday I did a regular crossfIt workout for an hour and then did 160 burpees as part of a separate challenge. I burned 400 calories. I can easily eat 400 calories of chips or cookies in 2 minutes, annihilating that entire workout, and then I'll keep going until I've eaten 2000 calories worth of those chips or cookies, easy, in 10 minutes. And if I didn't intentionally leave it myself, I could do it again later the same day, and keep doing it every single day, no problem. The simple fact is that your formerly fluffy friend lost most all that weight because he was eating less than he had been.
I apologize if that wasn't the point of your story, but it seemed like it was.
Well its def different when in a military program since you have only so many times a day you can eat and for the rest of the day you are working out. Well in the world where we are all working for a living. Thats not something anyone can do. I am a woman so my routine is different than men. But either way, none of us can work out all day. If you can work out literally all day. Then yes you probably can eat alot. Bc ur working it off & then some. When we are only limited to working out a couple hours a day, then we are limited to how much we can eat
@@laceystrattonwhitehead1199 Since I know both world perfectly well, I'm certain, that even with full time work, it's absolutely possible to get shredded, even with kids, and I that's not hear say, it's personal experience. No gym needed. Bodyweight is enough. But well, no discipline, no results.
That may sound harsh, but nothing exceptional comes from just finding excuses.
That entire story is basically just proving that if you're expending more calories than you're consuming and doing resistance training, which can include cardio, then you will lose weight and build muscle lol.
Yes you are eating 1000-1500 calories per meal 3x a day but you are marching, moving, and doing PT for 12-14 hours a day too. You burn through the calories from those meals in a matter of hours, leaving little to none stored in your liver so naturally your body will then rely on fat stores and muscle to burn until new calories are introduced. That is the foundation to fat loss.
You are definitely creating a 500 total calorie deficit or more per day most days within that month period, so yes you will lose weight. And due to the exertion on your muscle groups you will also develop more muscle mass and get stronger as long as you are consuming enough protein.
Not sure how I stumbled onto this video, but Mike is hilarious. Thoroughly enjoyed this video on my drive to work this morning. 😂
Thank you so much!!! I came REAL CLOSE to falling for this V Shreds bs. You saved me alot of time and humiliation!
Okay -- I am so gratified to see your work on this video. Everytime I see this guy, I want to throw something. I'm 50 years old; I've been at this for over thirty years and suffered every mutation of the fitness-seeking lifestyle (including being 100 pounds overweight and having to fight back from that). I went to college. I took Bio, A&P, kinesiology. Steady state cardio works the things you don't see but very much benefit from: heart, lungs and metabolic efficiency (the ability to support sustained activity). Try to function without these abilities, or with them severely diminished (as happens with age and inactivity). When you do train this capacity, it's not as much a difference you can see, but then you look back and say, "Wow, I started out biking five miles, now I'm doing twenty-five, and I move much lighter and more free." Thank you for doing this work and bringing it to the public. You have a new subscriber.
Preach! Same here. 💪🏾
bald man my beloved ❤
Thanks for doing this. People need to expose folks like V-Shred.
Dude, you crack me up. Glad you took on V Shred.
Finding a channel like Renaissance Periodization to warn us about Fitness Scams is always refreshing. This is people's health we are talking about and they deserve to be given truthful information to help their training.
